SFD 2010 registration is OPEN!!!

by Frederic Muller

Dear all, This is with a lot of struggles that we have finally managed to open the SFD 2010 registration <http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/register.html>! As you can see there is still a lot of ongoing work on the site, and this includes a New Wiki <http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org> where you can create your team page <http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/CreateYourTeampage>, a new home page <http://maddog.softwarefreedomday.org/cms-sfd/> for all the information about Software Freedom International and other generic and important stuff and much more to come. I want to particularly thank *Thilo*, *JM*, *Matt* and *Robert* for helping out as well as our web infrastructure sponsors, that is Canonical <http://www.canonical.com> and Linode <http://www.linode.com> for providing our little corner on the web. Due to the delay there will only be 10 days to get free CDs this year, so don't slack! And happy SFD preparations! Oh and by the way, the direct link to registering your team is here http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/register.html after creating your team page <http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/CreateYourTeampage> of course. Any question please let us know. The SFI Board

SFD Wiki problem-access (creation pages)

by Jean7491

As observed by Steve, it appears to be a permissions problem of some kind that's preventing wiki users from editing the wiki or creating pages. I've been able to connect on the wiki.softwarefreedomday.org as registred user, but I was not allowed to create my personal page, nor a new country page "Belgium" (Europe/Belgium), nor my Team page "Ostend".

The access restriction of NorthAmerica were too strict. The general idea so far was to just have 2010/NorthAmerica/USA/Dallas - but I can see that this is not that well suited for the USA. So I will insert a state form, too. Come back in 10 minutes. Regards, Thilo
